Employee wellbeing

Ebooks, research and more to help create or enhance a workplace wellbeing strategy.

Our wellbeing section can help businesses create or review a workplace wellbeing strategy, plus access to CPD-approved tools and guides to help employers navigate sickness absence. We can also help employers recognise potential problems that can lead to sickness absence and learn more about the problems employees with serious illnesses may face. Our wide range of online and on-site workshops are designed to help employers deal with some of the most common and difficult causes of staff absence, including stress, mental health and cancer in the workplace.

How to communicate your staff benefits

Benefits window coming up? Here’s how to ensure staff are in the know about their employee benefits.

There’s little point in doing all the hard yards choosing the best employee benefits if people don’t know about them. Research by Cass Business School1 estimates that failing to tell staff about the benefits on offer costs UK companies through increased staff turnover and sickness absence. Communicated well, a good benefits package can help to manage - and reduce - bottom line costs, and help to build a loyal and more productive workforce.
